What kind of money are you looking to spend? People can reccomend things all day long, but if you cant afford it or you do not want to spend a lot of cash then it won't matter. You can easily spend $1,000 to properly power that system.

well i drive it daily but i want to start competing. i just want to upgrade my electrical system so my light wont dim and i have enough power to power eveyrthing up correctly. well as in the budget im not sure it depends, but if u guys had a solo x 12 inch w a hercules hifonics amp, how would u upgrade ur electrical system?

I hate to come across like this...but that driver is going to laugh at that amp //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Do you have the SoloX yet? I can think of many more drivers that are better suited for you...

if you already got the herc, throw another herc at it. Two hercs strapped at .5 is a much better plan than your standard. Than we can talk about upgrading your electrical system....

saw a dude with an 18" solox off an old KX1200.1. I wanted to slap him.it hardly shook his CRX

LOL! he must of got the SoloX for a hell of a deal. Or saved up all his money for that one sub, and no amp to power it properly

that's assuming you're 1/2 way sane //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
